[Matilda]"Mommy, is this our new school?" Aiden asked me from the backseat"Yes baby," I said softlyI swiped through my phone calling Leo the second time. He was supposed to be here before us so why was he not here yetI felt what I was doing was wrong by not informing Kaden. I had even forgot to mention it to him last night. I noticed he'd been busy and Leo was right, the kids can't just continue staying at homeSo after we are done, I'll just give him a call and tell him how everything went"Mommy, Uncle Leo," Aiden tapped my lap shifting my attention to himHe pointed at the side of my window and I followed his tiny hands and there he was. Leo, standing right out, trying to peer into the glassI rolled down the window, my lips falling into a pout"You're late," I rolled my eyes and he chuckled, his eyes scanning all over the car. I watched as his lip curled downward"Did you have to drive this one today?" Leo asked and I blinked back at him. What was this man's problem"It's the
[Kaden]"What the fuck did you just fucking say?" I growled"She escaped early this morning," The doctor repeated and I felt heat surge through every inch of meIs this some kind of joke or something?I stared at him, and back to the bed, a sly smirk curling up my lips"Hold on?" I took a step closer to the fucker who just spilled the most useless information to me right now. "You mean to fucking tell me that a patient who you said was in a comatose state, who I saw yesterday, lying down unconscious, suddenly flew from the hospital. A patient you're supposed to be looking after?" I snapped, taking another step closer to himI was beginning to see redAll I wanted right now was to smash the idiot's head on the wall for him to tell me what the fuck happened"Listen," I mumbled, dragging a hand down my face. "I'm not going to repeat this question, where the fuck is she?" I snapped, watching as the bastard flinched, taking a step back"I...I...," He paused, staring right into my eyes. "Sh
[Kaden]"Mr. Donovan, you need to come to the hospital right away," The doctor's voice boomed out making my brows crease"Is everything okay? Is she awake?" I asked, my voice stern but there was a pause on his end making my brows knit even moreWhat exactly was wrong? Did she... No, she can't be dead, right?"I think it will only be better if you get here yourself, I need to go now," He said, and just like that the line went deadI blinked back, tilting my neck as I stared at the phone in my hand. Something seems wrongI told him to alert me if she happens to wake up so if she's not awake why did he call and why was he sounding like the hospital was suddenly on fire'What if someone came by to visit her,' my inner mind chimed inI tossed my phone aside, wiping my hair as I made my way into my walk-in closetIt better not be fucking what I'm thinking because heaven knows she can't die like that. It's not fucking allowed, she has to pay for every damn thing she did~~~~~~~~My hand tigh
[Kaden]"Her? A lady? Who is she? Is...is she someone you know?" Tilda asked her eyes almost widening as she stared back at meWhat was I supposed to tell her? That my wife was the one who not only tried to kidnap and kill my children but was behind my father's death? And was also trying to kill me all because of what she was trying to gain. Or that she was never into men but it was all a strategy for yearsI bit down on my lip, tucking my hand into my pocket. "I don't think that should be your business, can I see the kids?" I asked and watched as she narrowed her eyes, blinking back. Her eyes swept over mine like she was trying to say something but decided against itShe nodded and made her way towards her house. I swallowed hard, my jaw clenching as I tried to hide the way my heart clenched when I saw that bastard leading her out of his house and how deeply he kissed her before leading her to the carWell I came here over three hours ago but the nanny strictly told me that she was i
[Matilda]"We should take things slow, isn't that what you want to say, I know that but I want you now baby," Leo growled, trailing kisses all over my neckMy heart almost jumped out of my chest as his hand rested on the hem of my gown trying to pull it upI held his hand immediately, my lips pressing into a thin line as I stared up at him, with pleading eyes"Leo, can...can we take it slowly, I mean you're my man now that I know, but let's not rush things, we'll get there but, I...""You don't feel anything for me?" His deep voice rang out making my body stiffen. I swallowed hard, my hand tightening on his neck, I pulled him closer and placed a kiss on his lips before pulling back"Why would you say that? I told you I wasn't ready for a relationship all these years and I was still the one that told you I was ready to give us a chance, so why would you think I don't feel something for you," I whispered, feigning hurt, even when I know he was saying the truthI felt bad that I was tryi
[Matilda]"Don't tell me you're going to say no to that?" Leo said beside me and I stared back at him, pressing my lips into a thin line"That's not what I meant, I'm just you know...""Abiding by their father's rules? Isn't that it, you're going to let the kids keep staying back at home while their mates are in school, just because you're waiting for Kaden to find a good school for them, which I am sure he might have forgotten because I know it's been weeks now," Leo snappedKaden hasn't reached out to me or even to check up on the kids for a week now, it was unlike him. I wanted to call him so bad to know what was up with him but I couldn't, I don't see why I should. I knew he said his wife was hospitalized but I'm sure she must be okay by now, maybe that's why he hasn't had the time to come around. He must likely be looking after herI swallowed hard as that last thought crossed my head. I shook my head immediately, pushing it aside Leo's voice pulled me out of my thoughts again m
